Both of these were evenly matched for the most part, however, when Whitebeard’s health was worsening, Marco was incredibly worried about his captain and this allowed the Marines to sneak up on him and put him in sea-stone cuffs. Once that was done, it was easy for Kizaru to injure him with his laser powers and take him down in combat. It must be noted, however, that, in a proper combat, both of them were evenly matched.

Winner: Sakazuki
